It’s almost 10pm on Friday night and I am forcing myself to stay up just a little longer. My eyelids are SO heavy and my eyes are very tired. It’s been quite the intense few days. Creative-intense… the best kind. We were seriously productive finishing all designs for the idea book, QVC appearance on Dec.19/20, and designing a total of 3 classes for next year. I am very excited about the classes. They have lots of versatility and interest. I will be posting the shows that my team will be teaching at very soon, so that you can keep an eye on getting signed up!
I am teaching a class here on Nov. 18 at Scrapbooks Etc. I don’t teach very often…I am only teaching about 2 classes a quarter… and I like to do that so that I can see people’s responses to new stuff that I show/experimenting with… as well as just testing the waters for classes in general. I enjoy the opportunity and the store has an awesome classroom! My sincere thanks to Marti Jones for allowing me to teach there a little bit. The class I am teaching is called “heidi how-to”. It’s mostly a technique class- this time I will be playing with masks and clear stuff… as well as showing off my *new* favorite color of spray paint… {silver}. Should be a good time. Krylon is sending in toys for it! I think they said there were a couple of seats left if you are a LOCAL come and play! I am teaching the same class twice that day. check out the website for more info and phone number etc.:
http://www.scrapbooks-etc.com and if you do venture to the store, be sure that you go to the website anyway and get a free coupon.
This is an album that I made last night to house the Halloween pages
that I have been doing, and Halloween pages for the future. I will be
demo-ing how I created this album cover in my class on the 18th. among other fun stuff!
Looking forward!
Wow, I am ultra tired.

















nitey-night heidi...
sweet dreams

Heidi, can you explain your spiral albums to me. What are they like inside? Do they have plastic covers over the pages like the traditional albums? I'm assuming you can't add pages so do you just use them for specific events such as halloween, christmas, etc? Thanks.

Hi Heidi, I saw the adorable baby gift you sent to Stacy Julian on her blog. I love the packaging. I was curious about what you did on the clear packaging. Did you use your bird mask and spray paint? What is the clear material, is it a transparency or something else? Thanks so much.

I'm glad that you're creative week was sucessful. I really wished I lived in AZ right now. 1. So I can take as many classes from you as I can and 2. We've had a pretty dismal week here in Washington will all the rain... we need some major sunshine!

Heidi-
this doesn't really belong here, but i'm not sure where to put it...
i think i need to sign up again for the newsletter (if that's the place you publicized your halloween photo contest). it's strange that i didn't get it because i got the one about water in the summer.
maybe this will find it's way to the right place. THANKS.

Thank you so much for the product demo scrap night at Lucky #15 last night! I was completely blown away by your product line and then watching you do the layout! Amazing!
You are so talented Heidi!
Thanks for inspiring us to step out of our comfort zone to being all that we were designed to be!
